Thompson Selected Editorial ENLIGHTENMENT. The first woman to be made the editor of any college daily newspaper is Miss Zetha Hammer. editor-in-chief of the Daily Kansan, publication of the University of Kansas. This is not necessarily an insidious suffrage victory. Perhaps it is really less a triumph for the girls of the university than it is for the men. In savage communities, woman is a slave to man. She progresses to free- dom and a fair share of the privileges of man in proportion to the civiliza- tion of the males of her community. That any student body should per- mit a woman to usurp that much cov- eted position of editor of the college paper speaks mighty well for the en- lightenment of Kanas boys.

LIBERTY STREET -"-+ The general consensus of opinion concedes that the J-Hop just passed was one of the most successful and fficiently managed social affairs which have taken their place in Michigan's history. It was more of a university function and less of a fraternity af- fair. Its patronage was not so limited to the members of the male sex as has been the case in Hops of the past. And this brings us to the pointwe wish to make. One of the objections to the old Hop was that it was a direct insult to the women of the university. This state of affairs gave rise to the old, old joke concerning the barrenness of sorority houses on the week-end of the big party. And so on ad infini- tum. If these things are true or half true we think the fault lies with the women rather than the men. At the J-Hop all Michigan students are hosts, not the men alone, but the women as well. The men invite out- of-town girls and local girls as their guests. Yet they have been accused of discriminating against the women enrolled in the university. To our way of thinking it does not seem at all out of the way to suggest that the women mnake this affair their own as much as the men do. They could have their own house-parties and do their own entertaining. The idea is not revo- lutionary since the thing is done now at the big women's colleges in the 3ast. A Hop given under such condi- ions as these would be a truly Michi- an affair, Several Experienced Reporters Are Wanted at Once for the News Staff ,f The Michigan Daily.

Editor, The Michigan Daily:- After eighteen months of fighting, the misery and suffering in Europe today is so terrible and so overwhelm- ing that we, far away in peaceful and prosperous America, can but faintly appreciate it. A recent appeal from one of the de- vastated districts says: "Whole com- munities are without money and with- out clothes, except the horrible rags in which they stand, and without hope of survival except through the prompt aid of America. Three million old men and women and mothers of chil- dren are turning their faces in anguish to America." Mr. Willard who went to Europe to make personal investigations for a New York Relief Committee writes back: "The distress and lack at the front as I now learn it daily, is be- yond words! Many emergency and field hospitals are without the barest necessities for caring for wounded men. Orders for hospital supplies are so gigantic that the factories can- not fill them-you should have seen the beds 1 saw Friday, sacks of straw on bits of board and one blanket as the whole covering. Mrs. X told me of a hospital without sheets but under the dying they put newspapers as a luxury when they can get them." Our committee on relief work was organized November 15, 1915, and has been working steadily ever since. We have received such generous and cor- dial support from the people of Ann Arbor that we have been able to send much warm clothing, material to be made up in the refugee work shops in Europe and a large quantity of surgical dressings of various kinds. Besides continuing this work, we are now very anxious to send in addi- tion supplies df bed linen, blankets. towels, night shirts, etc., to some of the hospitals most needing help such as are described above. To do this we must have money, won't you help us? While we have been trying especial- ly to help the destitute women and children in the various devastated dis- tricts, we are interested in all kinds of war relief work and will be glad to receive and use to the best of our ability contributions for any of the countries at war. Where the pur- pose or destination of a contribution is indicated, the wishes of the giver will be scrupulously respected. In view of this unimaginable and wide-sprea suffering, we feel no hesi- tation in asking your co-operation, for we are sure that the students of the University of Michigan will wish to havee some part in this great humani- tarian work which America must do today. Do not hesitate to give because you can, only give a little. "A little HOE SH OE S ROME wasn't built in a day.. Neither was any- thing else worth while.

The house was practically sold out and everyone present expressed the opin- ion that this performance showed even more refinement than that given earlier in the year. On Friday morning the club will leave for Saginaw where they will give a performance that evening at the Academy theater. Those who will imake the trip will include besides the cast, J. E. Sanders, E. A. Sachs, J. S. Sachs, J. S. Switzer, and W. Peddi- cord. Professor and Mrs. L. A. Strauss will chaperone the trip. C. E. Quinn, who has charge of the ticket sale at Saginaw reports a large ad- vance sale and everything points to another big success for the club on this trip. hiarold Titus Publishes New Story Harold Titus, '12, managing editor of The Michigan Daily. in 1912; has a story entitled "A Four-Handed Game," which appears in the February num- ber of Munsey's magazine. JIt is a story of a hunter and adventurer, who, in hunting for game, encounters a buck. The stratagem of the buck is well described by the writer. WAGNER & CO.
